Feedback and suggestions：
       In Taiwan, the troupe has been existing for a lony time. In early times, people thought those who dropped out of school played the troupe. However, according to our study the stereotype of the troupe has gradually faded away as time goes on.
Recently, the activities of the troupe have gradually become popular.  You can see many Taiwanese traditional folk arts from magazines, news, newspapers and performances. The innovation of the troupe meets with oppositions, but it still keeps the traditional spirits after changing. In own oppositions, the tradition doesn’t need to stay the same as it used to be.  If we add some spice into it, it might be good. Let people know more about the troupe art, we can take the troupe as cultural teaching materials, so that this traditional folk art can hand down to generations.
